multitail 7.1.1-1 is now available in Cygwin. This is a new upstream release. There's no upstream changelog, but there's an out-of-date list of releases at the project homepage[1], or you can read the project's commit log[2].
MultiTail lets you view one or multiple files like the original tail program. The difference is that it creates multiple windows on your console (with ncurses). It can also: * Monitor wildcards: if another file matching the wildcard has a more recent modification date, it will automatically switch to that file. That way you can, for example, monitor a complete directory of files. * Merge 2 or more logfiles. * Use colors while displaying the logfiles (through regular expressions), for faster recognition of what is important and what not. * Filter lines (again with regular expressions) and has interactive menus for editing given regular expressions and deleting and adding windows. * Have windows with the output of shell scripts and other software. When viewing the output of external software, MultiTail can mimic the functionality of tools like 'watch' and such. Andrew E.
